“You wanna maybe take a couple steps back?”
Hale shakes his head. “I’m good here.”
“Christ,” Stiles exhales. “If you jump it will be incredibly traumatic for me. For the record.”
“Anyone ever tell you how calming of a presence you are?” he drawls, sarcasm thick in his voice. “I hope I never end up in your rig.”

Summary
Derek huffs, the softest hesitation of a laugh, warm against his skin. “You talk in your sleep,” he counters quietly. “A lot.”
Panic flickers up his spine before Stiles can stop it. He forces his voice to stay light, easy. “It’s probably just my soul trying to escape my body,” he says. “Can’t blame it, really.”
But inside, he’s scrolling through mental footage of every night he’s ever crashed here, cataloguing every murky, half-remembered dream, wondering what words might have slipped out when his guard was down. Did he say Derek’s name? Did he say I love you? Did he say don’t leave? Did he confess the whole pathetic thesis statement his brain has been footnoting for months now: I know this isn’t actually anything for you, and that’s fine, I’m fine, please just let me keep pretending until you get bored?

Summary
Winter is closing in on the Hale valley when Derek—an exiled alpha turned recluse—finds a half-frozen omega and a baby in the snow outside his cottage. He should have left them to the storm; he’s learned what kindness costs. But the sound of the infant’s cry, and the scent of something wild and familiar in the omega’s skin, pull at the part of him that still remembers how to protect, how to care, how to love.
As the snow deepens and the fire burns low, Derek’s solitude unravels thread by thread.
The omega’s name is Stiles—a runaway from a war Derek has long tried to forget. He carries secrets, grief, and a child who isn’t meant to survive the winter.In a world of fading magic, hunters, and ghosts of kingdoms lost to fire, two wounded souls find warmth in each other’s silence.
But the past always finds its way through the snow.Series

Summary
Above the mild terror of this brand new experience, under the mask of regret from what he had just done, there was nothing but relief.
Basically a season 1-2 re-write.
